However, it’s the manner of defeats that are the cause for concern, and there are reports that Arteta has been given until the next international break to turn the Gunner’s fortunes around, or face being the first manager to be sacked this season, and Allardyce is currently unemployed, so is always an option.
Arteta joined the club in December 2019 after leaving his role as Pep Guardiola’s assistant at Manchester City, but hasn’t been able to get Arsenal any higher than eighth in the Premier League.
Arsenal’s first ever technical director Edu has also been subject to heavy criticism from the Gunners fans, as the club’s recruitment has been extremely poor ever since the Brazilian joined ahead of the 2019/20 season.
In a rare interview, Edu has spoken out about the judgements that have been made, in an interview with Sky Sports, and explained that injuries have also been a factor in Arsenal’s poor start to the season.
